Due to popular demand by like-minded slimers, I submit an innocuous Key to the tam sentences used in the post below. All are from Rajni films :D
En vazhi – thani vazhi - My way is a unique way
Andavan solran. The Giant seiran - God tells,the Giant does
Naan solrathaiyum seiven, sollathathiyum seiven.- “ will do what I say, I will also do what I don’t say!
P.S. The translation is as near to the actual essence of the dialogues as possible. Even if it isn't, just read and enjoy the post macha! kai ko bheja kharab karne ka

See when u r IAS, there is no need to talk to people directly...a well-trained giant can DO that for u!
Ha!En vazhi – thani vazhi!!
Not responding to conversation directed at u, is yet another difficult art to master, la. Scowl baby...yes yes WORK THE SCOWL! I only need to grimace and judging by the exact dimensions of my scowl, my giant knows if I feel like talking... ANDAVAN SOLRAN, THE GIANT SEIRAN!!!
I personally like the well-oiled mustachioed pahelwaans from UP-Bihar...ummm MUSCLES AND ALL!! Oops, hehe...But Rajni's personal style statement is not too bad...what u don't know Rajni?? The 2nd most important man in Tamilnadu after me - Rajnikanth. Yea him. When in Muthu, I heard those words come out of his mouth, "When I will arrive, or how I will arrive, nobody will know, but I will arrive when I ought to", I FELL IN LOVE,DA! That overweening pride, such gruffness! Me and Rajni: Same to same!!
Naan solrathaiyum seiven, sollathathiyum seiven.
Enough said.

What do u get if u throw a prickly bush, an ego the size of luxembourg, with the pride of madonna to an over-eager fan? IAS!!!!
To this we must add a giant.A giant with a healthy tendency of believing the worst in strawberries. Scraping and bending over for the bureaucracy, the giant defiantly shrills "I to ignore all these tantrums...waat sahib, I'll just get ur paper, anything more? haan so I was saying,I sooo don't put up with all this! ..huh? what wrong paper..yikes!...listen can u wait a sec, sahib doesnt like if my attention wanders...(pause) yea! so where was I?! Yea! u must learn to ignore..."
... what was that, twisting their stalks?? Ah, luxembourg growing, annexation...the strawberries wilt in dismay.
Grimly, the giant turns, "You know, I'd appreciate if you don't disturb sahib? I mean I know bureaucrats have their faults."
(Nervous whisper) "Did I just say faults?!"
"No no, of course not, what I meant was that it can be quite irritating..shit shit, u DID NOT hear me say that! promise me, PROMISE ME!!!"
(Deep breath)
"I might have lost control there a bit...hehe!" (smoothening hair)
(Wild look)
(Licking lips)...
(Look getting wilder)
"Ok, this conversation never happened."
... annexation complete.

Ok am watching Rock On at the moment. Thoughts..
first 5 minuts were painful...Farhan akhtar's voice well...it took getting some used to. And the dialogues!!
But what remains with me after nearly 45 minutes of the movie is the direction...it is surprisingly good. Cut to the scene where Farhan's character Aditya looks at Luke Kenny for a long time after a poignant dialogue...what that one look said, the bitterness, the why-rake-the-past ness, guilt...very very good. I also liked the non-linear narrative style, flashbacks merging well and coming at the right moments.
Arjun Rampal pulls off the retiring guitarist, nagged by his fiesty wife, haunted by his past, the what-could-have-beens decently well...the fact that he has those cheekbones does help ;) !
... Hmmm, Farhan doesnt have a varied repertoire of facial expressions, but i think his earnestness as the young aditya was quite endearing. The dandiya scene was killer!
His character chose to walk away from a life, accepted another with all the grace of a wolf turning vegetarian, but as an audience I got what he felt...the conflict, that's what made the movie!
Aditya's conflict with who he is, Joe's demons..all of that.
I loved Luke Kenny! such controlled acting, the peacebroker of an explosive band, a guy at peace with himself... dude I never knew he was that good! possibly my favourite character in the whole movie..
that desai woman, aditya's wife...God! why is she so screechy...does she not get that man doesnt want to talk...no! keeps coming back again and again...gets snubbed...bt she is the wife...all that training in the K-serials has to be of some use right!?

Obscure; Escapist; Opinionated; Loner.
It becomes interesting when u begin to compartmentalize yourself.
like how your horoscope prediction in the TOI has something for everyone, for every disaster you might face in a day...easier to relate to...easier to get accepted by.
______________________________________________________________________
First Years. were we so young ever? and now i cant even imagine how foolish i must've looked ragging my immediate juniors in my newly-acquired status of a senior.
No sooner than u reach 4th yr, that u hear this constant grumble of "how old we're now, macha?"
"look at these bacchas?". Its been one day into college. One day into that ludicrous excuse for a classroom on the 2nd floor. 20-fuckin-somethings, waiting to stab someone in the back, sometimes for the sheer pleasure of 'we can'. Yea man, definitely old...

Am watching a movie smack in the middle of my exam preparation and I realize I've developed an incredible crush on Colin Firth.
Ever since those BBC Pride and Prejudice days. Flamed and stirred with the Bridget Jones-falling-for-inexpressive-yet-smouldering-Mark Darcy. Switch to the fight scene between Hugh Grant and Firth- 2 Englishmen hitting each other with their handbags, too afraid to get hit themselves. Realistic cinema, they call it.
Epiphanies at midnight, I like to believe. LPD notes lying carelessly on my table.
Life is like that...eccentrically arcuate.
